The selectees/appointees can't even make it through to confirmation. The latest stupid dumb? The VA choice. Rejoice one and all. Another potential appointee hits the wall...can't pass the smell test. So much for getting THE BEST PEOPLE.
How do we know if the miscomprehension isn't ours? So we talk at cross-purposes without ever realizing it. Thus are relationships fractured/shattered. SIGH.

Which is the best weapon against truth? A lie, a deny, an ignore?

That it's a hoax, a fake, a liberal conspiracy. To do what and why? They never tell you that. They are even more adamant about it today than yesterday. More strident. More certain. Evidence to the contrary is ignored but that is what is "inconvenient" to them.

That it was killing birds and other living things and polluting the foods we eat, the soil, the air we breathe. I'm sure the pesticide makers wanted to shut her up and deny and lie to protect their bottom line. Money always trumps everything. Even life itself. More's the pity.
It is an odd way to insist on innocence. Not calm and measured and thoughtful and logical but frantic, possessed, obsessed, reactive. Odd but possible?
